  1. After alignment of the top 50 sequences, several groups of RNA aptamers were identified. The representative RNA aptamers, the reads of each group, and their frequencies in the top 1000 unique sequences were listed. Only the 30-nt random sequences of the aptamer core regions (5′-3′) are indicated.
